what AV did you use before installing avast?
did your computer come with a factory installed Trail version of a AV?
did you uninstall it before installing avast?
did you run the vendors removal tool to clear any leftover files that may conflict?

Initially i had Norton security which was supported win 8.1 & 15days trial.

Before installing Avast i removed it with their tool provided on website.

Help me to boot from current option shown "restore"point ,either to disable AV or uninstall  thro'  cmd...

If you're running the Windows 8.1 preview release then the version of avast! that needs to be installed is
avast! 8 R 3. which is a beta build of avast! designed for Windows 8.1
Download it from:

I would suggest that you do a clean install of avast by following the instructions outlined here.
Just substitute the avast download mentioned at the beginning of my post.
